Homemade scone

I like scone, but I hardly to get the nice scone from bakery shop. Last month, I found a recipe from my colleague's blog, Hijau itu Indah Dan Permai..oh.. nice.. So I called her to ask for further..however, I had dragged it for weeks as I were busy for some other events.

Last Sunday, I 'd finally done it..... well..I do not have weighing scale..though I had copied down all her recipe, I just added in the ingredients by my own feeling...(ooppss..)..Here was my 1st scone:

So, how does it look? Pass? ...ok, closer look :

Still cannot tell it is good or not? ok, a clearer look:

To me, the appearance is ok, (actually it can be better, as I had ran out the egg...so no egg for the egg wash which use for brushing the top).. but the taste..hmm...really not that good, it's slight floury taste, maybe I put too much of flour, I forgot to ask my colleague is that suppose to be sticky. It was dry like course crumb after I mixed the flour with butter, even after I had added in the egg, but it turn wet and sticky after I mixed the yogurt and raisins. It was too sticky so I need to add in a bit of flour to form the shape, I am not sure was it the "little" flour gave the floury taste.

My husband gave me 70/100 for the 1st time, however I gave myself 60/100. I shall try again to achieve higher mark!

Taiwan Food shop, Sungai Wang

I am not sure you aware of it or not, Sungai Wang recently (actually last year I think) opened few new shops at level 5 (I guess so, i will re-confirm it when I go there again). This is one of the shop that look slightly different from others, where they constructed and designed the whole restaurant with toilet theme.

You sit on the toilet bowl and having the meal served in tiny toilet bowl. Something interesting. but it actually inspired by the Taiwanese (I guess), as they having the similar concept in Taiwan long time ago.

Normal drink comes with normal taste.

Ohh..eat you food in toilet bowl...taste really so so..

Look nice but taste not nice rice..

Look like sh*t but luckily still not taste like sh*t...

Ohh..smelly....good acting huh..

Attack!!

Overall this is the place to attract the youngster who like something new, the food really sucks, I don't think I will go back there again as the service seems so so only. What happened to me, there was a waiter (foreigner), I waived and asked for the bill when he walked pass my side, but he can just walked away and didnt hear anything!...I guess he was dreaming or thinking of something...How can a worker give you a quality food if he is not concentrated?.. It just not a right place to me.

Chillies, One Utama (New Wings)

My previous blog said that Chillies is still better than TGIF, so I must have the evidence to prove and convince you all. Again, sorry for that I had thrown my receipt so i cant recall the exact name for the dishes... By comparing the appearance of them, Chillies one is more attracting right?

Above was my friend's order. Below one was mine. Grilled steak.

No appetizer, no soup, no dessert but a super full dish.

TGIF, Sunway Pyramid

The 1st day of Chinese New Year 2010 was fall on the same day with Valentine Day. So, who and which festival are you going to celebrate with? Hard to choose right..?..Well, for me, I had both, hehe...We had a very quick Valentine dinner in Sunway pyramid, and went back home for gathering after that...nice plan..

Love is in the air...they only provide valentine meal that day, so the choices actually quite limited.
We sat beside him, Bruce Lee with many hearts.

Since they only offered set meal, so we just selected two different set for trying. 1st appetizer was deep fried cheesy macaroni ball. I actually tested it few times, so it was nothing to shout about.
Internal look.2nd appetizer was mexican style prawn cocktail with nachos, cant recall the actual name, as this was taken about 6 months ago.

Here comes the main dish, I think it was seafood spaghetti, haha..forgot already..

The other main dish was sauteed mushroom with salmon and rice.

It was actually no a good plan, we actually need to finish all these in less than an hour, I almost choke when I was eating! Where were we rushing to?..Err...actually our friends was waiting outside our house while we were waiting for our dessert..ahem..

A closer look. I totally cannot remember what did it call. I only know that we did not finish it as it was too "jelak"....well, maybe we were rushing... But overall I would say that their standard had dropped...still Chillies is better than them.

Rakuzen, Subang

This was my one month anniversary dinner, haha..had it in February 2010, now only I tried to upload it to my blog, my 1st time in my newly created blog..err...actually not new anymore, i created it months ago..oopppsss.. Heheheee..

My Husband like fried food so he ordered Tempura set meal.

I ordered a sushi + eel set meal for myself.

It's already 6 months over, I cant remember how much it cost...anyway, this article is for testing purpose..hee.
